Family grateful for community help to bring son home

THE heart-breaking ordeal to bring Adam Warner's body home from China will end with his funeral in Nerimbera this morning.

For 16 years, Adam, 40, lived and worked in China with his partner before suddenly taking his life on July 10, leaving his family with a daunting financial challenge of finding $18,000 to bring his body home.

Desperate to be reunited with their son, the Warner family launched a GoFundMe page that attracted tremendous support from the CQ community and around the world, to successfully raise the goal amount on Monday.
